    Great service and quality!

    My husband and I had It's All About The Cake do our wedding cake and desserts, and we were so pleased about the overall service and product from start to finish! This bakery partners with our wedding venue, which is how we found and decided to use them. We had our initial tasting, and it was such a pleasant experience. First of all, the cake was delicious! Secondly, Lizzie helped and served us at our tasting, and she was absolutely delightful and so helpful! We opted to have a smaller, two-tier cake as well as an assortment of desserts, and they were all delicious. We were also very happy to have the option of more desserts. The delivery of our cake and desserts on our wedding day went perfectly, and our guests loved them!

    Tasty Wedding Cake

    We booked our wedding cake through our vendor which provided us with a great package. They were able to work with our flower vendor to complete the look and everything turned out beautiful and tasty!

    ‘All about the cake’ team started out with a nice tasting to pick out the filling and cake flavors. It would’ve been nice to take a couple of friends or family members but that’s ok, they made it very intimate for just the two of us.

    We can’t wait to come back for our complimentary 1-year cake!

    Everyone loved it!!

    They nailed our cake - the taste was even better than the tasting, and the design was spot on to what we asked for. They are worth every penny, and do incredible work.

    Let Them Eat Delicious Cake!

    Ana and Colleen were so wonderful to work with. We met Ana the day of our tasting. She was very sweet and explained the process to us. It’s All About The Cake hosts the tasting at their cafe in Dana Point right by the harbor which is a beautiful location. They offer you champagne and bring the cake samples out to you so it is a very indulgent and fun experience! Most importantly, the cake is absolutely DELICIOUS! My Groom and I chose three flavors, one for each layer - vanilla cake with vanilla pastry cream and lemon curd filling, strawberry cake with strawberry pastry cream filling, and chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling. Leading up to the wedding,...

    Amazing cake taste and decor!

    We searched endlessly for cake shops until we came across two places that offered gluten free cakes. After doing a tasting, we had no doubt that we had to go with them. Their cake was super moist and tasted just like a regular cake, something that I really miss. We were instantly in love! My husband and I are obsessed with cake. They were very knowledgeable and that eased our minds since we were coming from Chicago. We had a three tier cake with raspberry, lemon, and strawberries & cream. Our guests had great things to say about it. It was beautifully decorated too! Another thing that we really liked was that we did not have to freeze our...

    Endless Possibilities

    My husband and I walked into our cake tasting appointment with absolutely no expectations but walked away more excited about our cake than any other wedding plans! Our cake options seemed only as limited as the combinations we could think of. In the end, my husband and I were able to put together some of the most amazing cakes that our guests were praising afterward! We highly recommend It's All About the Cake!

    Guests could not wait for the cake!

    Absolute stunning, and very tasty cake! When meeting with It’s All about the Cake we were able to create a unique and well-liked cake. We chose a three-tier buttercream frosted cake with three different layers of chocolate with raspberry preserves, vanilla with green tea crème and lemon curd crème, and vanilla with Italian rum crème. When cake tasting we were able to take our time and contemplate different flavors, try new ones, and retaste some creations to make sure we left with a dreamy wedding cake. When it came to the wedding toppers, I found online a cute animal couple and asked for them to replicate it. They made it even better! I was able to save those toppers...

    Most Beautiful Cake You Could Imagine

    I asked them if they could make a cake with just a picture. They made it better then the picture. Everything was edible except the starfish topper on top. We had 3 layers carrot, chocolate with bavarian cream and white cake with fresh strawberries. The shells and starfish on the cake were made out of white chocolate. YUM YUM!! All the cakes were moist and delicious. We had our wedding and reception in Dana Point on June 15th, and as you might guess, we had a ocean theme. The cake was the center of attention until we arrived. The cake was delivered while we were at the ceremony. When I saw the cake I got tears in my eyes....

    Cakes for those with allergies

    I have a severe peanut/nut allergy and couldn't find any vendors in the area I was getting married in that could cater to my allergy. Colleen took our order for four cakes with simple, elegant decor and guaranteed my safety. I highly recommend All About the Cake for any occasion, but especially for those with allergies. We have had birthday cakes and desserts from them in the past, but this was definitely the biggest order we placed with them. We were very sad to finish our cake, but we are looking forward to ordering more in the future!

    So Delicious

    The most amazing cakes. They were so accommodating for the tasting and have the most delicious cake. Easy, stress-free booking and on time delivery! It was a beautiful cake and so good. Our guests keep commenting on how it was the best wedding cake they have ever had. Especially because we ended up with different flavor of cake every layer because my grandma and I couldn't make up our minds! It all delicious!

    My husband and I were married at The Villa SJC this spring and It’s All About the Cake was our wedding bakery. We had our tasting meeting in their café and the cake was moist and flavorful. The most difficult part was narrowing it down. We decided on carrot cake with cream cheese, dark chocolate with raspberry, and vanilla with lemon.

    Having lived in three states together, we decided to model each of our three tiers after New Orleans, Boulder, and San Pedro. We provided a few photos, and let the experts work their magic. The cake was beautiful. They did a row of fleur de lis on top for Louisiana, a silhouette of the mountains and pine...

    The cake was a beautiful and dramatic addition to our wedding. We came into the store and they were expecting us and seated us right away for the cake tasting. It was a wonderful experience and we even stayed for lunch! Yummy!

    We gave her a picture of what we wanted and the cake was a perfect masterpiece. People at our wedding took tons of photos of the cake alone because it was a beautiful cake. Once the guest got to try the cake they asked for extra pieces! It was not too sweet or plain....just perfect.

    It's All About The Cake did the most fantastic job on our wedding cake. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the tasting they provided, which included their most popular flavors and any additional flavors that we wanted to try. They had so many delicious cake and filling options to choose from! We ended up getting half chocolate cake with raspberry filling and half funfetti cake and peanut butter cup filling. Everyone loved it! We also were able to pick different icing designs for each layer of our three tier cake and it turned out beautifully! If you want a delicious, beautiful wedding cake, It's All About The Cake is definitely the place to go!

    What a fun experience! This is such a cute little spot that I would definitely go back to for the food and drinks. When my fiance and I arrived, we were seated at the table, ordered 2 mimosas and only waiting about a minute for the lady to come out with all of the yummy cake! The lady who helped us was very sweet and explained what everything was and made the experience fun. Although I haven't seen my cake yet because I still have a few months until my wedding, I know it will be perfect because their cakes are amazing!! I would recommend this company for sure!

    We didn't directly work with this company because they came with the venue (Dove Canyon Country Club), but our cake tasting went smoothly and oh my gosh, the cake was so tasty and moist! Not too sweet, just perfect. It melts in your mouth. We did the white cake with lemon inside and the other layer was chocolate with raspberry. Definitely recommend those. Warning when you do your cake cutting at the reception, cut a bigger piece because it's so moist our tiny piece was falling apart, but man, it's worth the taste. Thank you to all that made it look perfect!!

    Hands down, the best cake we've ever had!

    Our wedding cake was included in our package at Wedgewood San Clemente. We met with Diane and her daughter Alexandra - both of them are amazing and are very passionate about their work.

    We added a groom's cake to the 3-tier cake that was included. My husband and I love to spend time in the desert and he has loved dirtbiking since he was just a kid. The cake designers are true artists at It's All About The Cake! They made the tire look exactly like a dirtbike tire on a 'dirt/mud' cake. My husband was thrilled and all of our guests that know our hobbies, thought this...

    If you are looking for the best tasting, fun, and most professional looking cakes, look no further! I had so much fun at the cake tasting too! Honestly, I am not a cake person, and their cakes were so moist, high quality and delicious! I did a 3-tier, white cake with raspberry and French pastry crème filling, and a second small 7" square chocolate grooms cake with raspberry and dark chocolate truffle filling, with a Texas Tech Double-T perfectly constructed on top (Our college alma mater!) Wonderful and excellent experience from beginning to end!

    Normally cake is not my dessert of choice, but I was blown away by the light, delicious taste of my wedding cake from It's All About the Cake. So fantastic! Plus, we got different flavors with each of the four layers. To top it off, on our one year anniversary, they will make us a fresh top layer of our cake (vs. dealing with frost bitten cake). Yum. Love it.

    My husband and I were so late to order our wedding cake and they accommodated us SO well! The cake was absolutely perfect and SO delicious! They even will re-make a miniature cake exactly like your wedding cake for your one year anniversary at no charge. I have no complaints and would recommend them!

    It's all about the cake was an absolute pleasure to work with. They made us feel like actual people, not just another another cake sale. The cake was gorgeous and we received countless compliments on how delicious the cake was. Some people (including my grandmother) said it was the best cake they had ever tasted!

    I love, love, loved our beautiful wedding cake. IAATC did an incredible job. Hubby and I liked that we were able to use two different flavors with our four different tiers. The fresh strawberries in November, were a delicious addition too. The sky's the limit with this vendor, and actually, we just enjoyed our complimentary One-year Anniversary cake (so no, unsanitary freezing of cake!), and it was delicious too. Light, elegant, fresh, and very tasty.
